Boy, U2 Album

Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (1994)

Jessica Simpson
I’ve honestly never listened to any of Jessica Simpson’s songs. But, I have seen her in movies. And, after some time, she has actually started winning me over a bit.
Some will criticize her as being a stereotypical dumb blonde. If that were the case, then how is it she’s …

City of Joy soundtrack CD
In my top five of Patrick Swayze films is City of Joy, the story of a suicidal young doctor (okay, they edited the suicidal part out of the released film, but that’s who he was) who travels to India and ends up being rejuvenated. It’s a marvelous film …
Kings of Leon
I first heard about Kings of Leon right around when they came on the scene which, I believe, was back in 2005. The first video I saw of theirs was “Four Kicks”. I liked the song’s kind of punchy, in your face sound, and the video was all around …

Cee Lo Green - Forget You - Single

The Beatles - Carry That Weight (Song)
Carry That Weight is one of the very last tracks on Abbey Road and although it is only 1:36 in track length, I feel like it offers quite a lot of music for that short amount of running space. I make a point to stress the time and length …

Animal Collective - Strawberry Jam
Animal Collective are critical darlings and the penultimate band of modern psychedelia.

Soulja Boy

Monkey Business by The Black Eyed Peas
I was very critical of the Black Eyed Peas’ newest album simply because I feel like it doesn’t really feature their own voices. It is so heavily edited and overly synthesized that I feel like I am listening to a bunch of robots in a recording studio, not the …
